Former Arsenal player Paul Merson has sent a message to Gunners manager Mikel Arteta, calling on his previous club to make a move for Southampton's James Ward-Prowse in the summer transfer window.
Ward-Prowse is set to leave the south coast amid rumoured interest from West Ham, Newcastle, and Manchester United, with Premier League teams preparing to line-up bids for the Saints skipper.
The 27-year-old playmaker is hot property on the transfer market after another impressive season in the Premier League that saw him called up to Gareth Southgate's England squad.
